The student representative for this course is Igor Kartamyschew, igorkar[O]student.matnat.uio.no.
Here is the assignment, to be returned through Devilry by the 18th October at 14:00. If you submit scanned handwritten solutions I would appreciate receiving the original as well, for instance in the lecture on the 18th.
We will do #4 on page 46 and #8 on page 58.
In this new version of the notes I have added the definition of subbundle and the material on orthogonal connections covered in the last lecture.
The problems will be discussed on Wednesday the 27th September.
The assignment will be posted no later than the 4th October and must be returned by the 18th October 2017.
These notes contain the material covered in the lectures until we started on do Carmo's book.
Here is the problem sheet. We will discuss the first two problems this Wednesday and the rest next Wednesday.
From autumn 2017 all mandatory assignments must be uploaded to Devilry.
- The assignment must be submitted as a single PDF file.
- Scanned pages must be clearly legible. If these two requirements are not met, the assignment will not be assessed, but a new attempt may be given.
- The submission must contain your name, course and assignment number.
